trade in your car, get a manual car. The money isn't worth whatever price you'll lose to trade it in for a manual car. Or, why stop there, you could actually get a sportscar while you're trading it up...

their lack of common sense falls under the category of not my problem - LOL

but i guess if they just wanted to ditch it whats the difference if they ditched an auto or manual?

I wont go turbo, friend of mine's car burnt to a crisp on the TPK this spring when he was leaving a meet -

sure, there were probs with the install, but seeing that really scared the hell out of a lot of us -

yeap I've built my auto tranny with the TCI Auto kit ( write up to come soon) since mine was having so many issues. Now running 12 psi on it I was doing better than some manuals when running around.

**** if it costs that much just to convert to manual you might as well throw in a couple grand more and get a swap.
